Abstract

1. Transmitter (1) for a radio-control device having two pivotable operating levers (2a, 2b) which are each mounted on a disc (4) accomodated in the transmitter housing, characterized in that at least one circular disc (4) carrying an operating lever (2a, 2b) can be rotated into and arrested in two positions offset from each other by 90 degrees.

Description

Transmitter of a radio remote control

The invention relates to a transmitter of a radio remote control with two pivotable, each mounted on a disc received in the transmitter housing Operating levers.

The transmitter of a radio remote control for game models usually has two pivotable actuating levers, the pivot axes of which are firmly locked offset by 90 degrees to each other. The vertically pivotable operating lever tst assigned to the function of driving and the horizontally pivotable operating lever assigned to the function of steering to the pivoting directions corresponding rectified movements of the vehicle model trigger. This is useful for vehicles that are steered with a servo However, alignment of the operating lever leads to difficulties when other steering mechanisms are used, for example in a tracked vehicle will. In the case of a tracked vehicle, for example, the steering can be controlled by different speed of the two motors, each driving a chain can be achieved. Bet use one designed for power steering Transmitter for a caterpillar drive, this would mean that the straight line drives us etne pivoting of one operating lever in vertical and the other operating lever would have to take place in the horizontal direction, which leads to considerable steering and driving difficulties.

The invention is based on the object to provide a transmitter that can be used universally for various steering mechanisms.

Power steering is the pivoting direction of the actuating levers offset by 90 degrees to each other and, for the caterpillar drive, the unidirectional pivoting direction set.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the two positions can be locked by notches and locking lugs engaging in these notches. The lock prevents unintentional twisting of the set position during the game process,

In a further embodiment of the invention, the notches can be sawtooth shaped to form a stop edge. This measure limits the range of rotation to these 90 degrees. Over-turning, which could lead to the wiring being twisted off, is therefore ruled out.

A particularly advantageous and inexpensive design results In a further addition to the invention in that two locking lugs are arranged in the wall of the bearing bore for the disc and two notches are arranged in the disc, the notches directly next to one another and with their stop edges directed towards each other, and the locking lugs are arranged with their stop edges offset by 90 degrees and also directed towards each other.

Finally, a bulge can be arranged in the disk for the latching lug that is not in engagement. With this measure, the detent which is not in engagement can also spring back into its starting position, so that there is no relief from the reinforcement of the spring Ra, stn «ise enters.

In the drawing, the invention is based on an execution ?. Examples, explained, It show:

Fig. 1 the transmitter rotates in the same direction for rotation

Figure 2 shows the right operating lever rotated by 90 ° position

The transmitter 1 of the radio remote control has two actuating levers 2 a, 2 b connected to control potentiometers, which trigger functions by pivoting. As a rule, these operating levers are used to manually control a Föhrzeug and enable driving forwards and backwards, straight ahead, right and left. The control signals emanating from the antenna 3 are picked up by a receiver built into the vehicle and processed to carry out the desired functions.

The "forwards" and backwards driving is controlled with an operating lever 2 a, which can be swiveled in the vertical direction and thus in the same direction as the travel movement. With one controlled by a steering axle The vehicle becomes a swiveling movement in the same direction as the driving behavior achieved by an operating lever 2 b, which can be pivoted horizontally to the left and right from the central position. This position is shown in the figure 2 shown.

Figure 1 zetgt also the second operating lever 2b in the same position as that for the drive. The rectified position of the two actuating levers is particularly suitable for controlling a caterpillar vehicle, since such vehicles are steered by different speeds of the two motors each driving a chain. To drive straight ahead, both operating levers 2 a, 2 b are swiveled out in the same direction.

To relieve the The respective non-locked detent lugs are bulges 9 in the disk provided that allow the corresponding locking lug 5 to spring back into its starting position. To secure the disks 4 in the bearing bore 7 of the transmitter housing, a cover plate 10 is provided which is attached to the transmitter housing is attached.
